KAvAGEs OF CUT WORMS.

The simplest and most effective RENEE
dy for these destructive pests, which
eat the plants off just beneath the sur
face of the soil. is to apply IA solution
of saltpetre around each hill close to the
plants. The proportion of saltpetre
necessary is a tablespoonful to a gallon
of water. The quantity usually recon-
mended in only tablespoonful to a
pail of water, but there in not the slight
est danger of injuring the plants by
making the solution as strongas recon-
mended. On the contrary. il seems to
promote their growth There is no
doubt that cornfelds might be protected
from the ravage of this greedy pest by
applying the above remedy. With a
barrel of solution at each end of the
cornfield, and couple of good-sized
watering pots, the labor of applying is
not nearly as great as it would appear
ut first thought.

LUCKY CLOVER.

DR.. Roseman, the Brooklyn dentist
who advertised himself by sending Mrs.
Cleveland a five-leaf clover for the an
niversary of her wedding day in the
Adirondacks, now wishes he had stud
led the subject of superstitions before
offering such an ominous gift. A five
leaf clover, among those who believe in
such fantasies, is symbolical of death.
To pick il means death in the family
of the picker; to give it to anyone else
is equivalent to the presentation of a
death warrant. The three leaf clover
is also deemed unlucky to find, pick or
give away. The only lucky clover,
blessed by the fairies has four leaves.
Superstitious friends of Mrs. Cleveland
anticipate a death in her domestic circle
during the coming year as the conse-
quence of DIR. Roseman's mischievOus
donation, and all the elOquence of Col.
IngerSoll and the members of the Thir-
teen Club could not convince them to
the contrary.
